Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Nexus Phase

Oh there was, sorry. There was no bonus ... there was bonuses paid on the basis of results on an annual basis. There was no bonuses culture from the point of view that if, to promote the business, in other words, to, you have to get so much lending done and you'll get so much if you achieve targets. There was no target-related bonuses paid in Irish Nationwide, except to the branch managers to incentivise them to get more home loans or attract more home loans for the society because that's where we were weakest for reasons I have outlined in my statement, that we didn't do tracker mortgages or we didn't do 100 per cents or we didn't do self-certification. We didn't take on loans at a 1% margin-----
